I prefer shorter earrings for everyday wear. These are somehow simple and intricate at the same time. I don't know how she does it, but I'm glad she does. She is amazing.
These are lovely earrings and look good with greying hair (!) and a black top. I don't see any gold on them. They are about an inch long and the pearl is about a third of an inch wide. They are quite solid and the clasp looks sturdy.
